About the Author
Hi, my name is Jean-Paul.
Motorcycling is a favoutire hobby of mine and I have had a number of bikes over the last 10 years. My favourite being a Suzuki RF900R when I was living in Holland.
When I was studying my engineering degree I use to work part time for my Dad at his Engineering Fabrication Shop. This gave me some great experience with tools and machines. I quickly learnt to appreciate not only if a machine looks good but also if it works good as well. Beauty + sound engineering.
From December 2006 to November 2009 I had lived in India (almost 3 years :) with the usual 6 month visa runs to Nepal or Thailand. I was getting really annoyed with India but this all changed dramatically after August 2007 when I bought the 350cc Enfield Machismo, 2006 model.
Before I had the bike I tended to meet Indians who would constantly lie and hassle me. After I had the bike I met a whole new kind of India and Indians. I would arrive in places where no tourists come and Indians rush up to me who simply wanted to talk and offer me a chai or some food, instead begging for money as was often the case in the past.
I had visited really beautiful areas in Indian I thought I would never see (especially around the Himalayas) and stopped randomly at small road side chai huts enjoying the wonderful views.
Motorcycling through India can be wonderful, as long as you have the time to do it and are not in a rush.
